What is the “problem” that your tool seeks to solve?

Simply put, Greenvelope aims to make events and event hosting better, easier, and more beautiful. By combining the first touch (the invitation) with all of the RSVP and event management software in one place, it really streamlines the workflow for corporate event hosts.

What is the best audience for this tool? Corporate events? Social? Other? Large? Small?

We offer functionality that both social and corporate events have really been able to get the most out of. The larger the event the more benefit people see, simply because we have designed a platform that is meant to assist throughout the entire event lifecycle. But for both large and small events, the uploading of guests, sending, tracking, on-site check in and follow-up is so effortless. We see our business clients using us for everything from large galas to office happy hours.

What does your tool help event planners do better?

1. Increase awareness and event attendance
2. Create a powerful and captivating first impression
3. Easily manage all guest and event details in one place
4. Be more efficient and save time

How is your tool different from/better than the competition?

1. No advertising
2. Easy tracking for open rates, RSVPs, survey questions, ticketing, donations, and all guest details in one place
3. Stylish, elegant guest experience
4. Easy social sharing and custom links
